Description

Nestled in historic Deadwood, this cozy stage‑stop café is celebrated for hearty, well‑presented comfort food—Indian tacos, pancakes, Monte Cristo and decadent carrot cake—plus excellent drip coffee and tempting baked goods. Friendly, efficient staff and an attached gift shop add to its charm, though the small dining room brings lines and occasional waitlist or service hiccups. Overall, a warm, authentic spot for breakfast or brunch that locals and visitors keep returning to.

The Indian Tacos and pancakes are the two of many reasons why people keep coming here to eat, but can we just take a moment to celebrate the carrot cake served here!!! It is decadent! Dave knows how to run a restaurant and is a master at food presentation as is evident by the people lined up to eat here! Don't be in a hurry, just sit back, enjoy your food, and be prepared to want to come back!

Cheyenne Crossing never disappoints! The Indian tacos are delicious and the service is always friendly. Just note that it is a small restaurant so if you have a big party they may be a bit of a wait but it is well worth it!

I was born in Deadwood, this place means so much to me.. even though it had been 40 years since I was there last, that is until just a couple of days ago. It brought back a lot of beautiful memories and the staff is just as sweet as they ever were I think I spent at least 45 minutes in the gift shop couldn't leave without a bottle of menopause wine it was awesome I'll be back in March thank you for being wonderful

Had the Indian taco on the fried pan bread. It was very good. And of course the carrot cake. (My husband even tried the carrot cake and he isn't a carrot cake eater). It true stands up to the hype.
